That sounds interesting, I didnt hear that - i know the show is available as a podcast - any idea what date he was on Daz?
EDIT - just found it on youtube
From the second it was confirmed he was coming to us the media have wanted him to fail,if he had gone to the swamp they would adore him,i don't understand why the media aren't made up with having him in the prem,from his interviews i think the penny has dropped now that anyone who comes to us is put down in the media
It's such a shame that having someone like Pep here is not embraced by them,it seems like the press and pundits are all dying to say see i told you it would never work here instead of learning something new,as you say click bait is more important,funny how they loved him before he got hereI suspect the journos are, well the better ones like Winter and Samuel.
The Indie, Guardian and Telegraph field Herbert, Jackson and Ducker as the Manchester/Northern correspondent, and those three appear to all loathe City (the first two it's known, but Ducker seems as bad).
The editors, particular of tabloids and commercial TV, will want clickbait.
I was laughing in the bath at that....Fucking idiot.Paddy Power on Talk Sport just said that "Pep is obviously unhappy and wants to go home' well that's that then, we're fucked.

They're all joining in today. Shearer and Mr Personality, Trevor Brooking, have come out to say Pep has underestimated the Premier League! I'm pretty sure Pep knew more about the Premier League than these two boring farts thinks he knows. These two 'experts' were both crap at management and have little or no experience of football in Europe. Doesn't stop them sticking the knife in though.
The age thing is an interesting one because we were constantly told last 2 seasons we have an old team but now they ignore the fact that are core of oldies is still there and need replacing,it is a rebuild this year but now they ignore that fact it needs doing,they are a strange lotThe irony is, at the start of the season it was the journalists and pundits who were saying that City would walk the league. Guardiola was far more circumspect about our prospects, even after our brilliant start.
Now that it looks like we probably won't win the title, they claim that he underestimated the league, whereas the reality is that they were overstating our credentials early on. It was always going to be a transitional season, and a huge rebuilding job given the age of our squad.
